Heya, its me, babydash65 / local fungus / zin1x. I've been working on a game for a while now, but the programming side is very lacking. Which is why I need help. Mainly, I'm looking for a programmer who is good at following what I need for my game, as I already have a lot of it designed (Though, as always, things can change). Now, why should you program for me, may you ask? Well, because this game I'm cooking up will make NG history!!! I fully intend on making a 4-8 hour long metroidvania experience playable within browsers, with a pretty heavy story and deep lore to boot. Now, i shall provide a rundown of the ideas I have for the game, trying to minimize spoilers the best I can.
- Interesting and unique gameplay
- Unique movement systems
- Deep story
- Rich lore with interesting characters
- Unique combat system focused around status effects
- High difficulty
- Difficult bullet hell-like bossfights based off of the Calamity Infernum Mod for Terraria
- Surreal worlds inspired by Yume Nikki
Heres a little preview of what I have programming-wise:
(see why i need help :P)
SO if any programmers have free time and they wanna help make this insane project please contact me lol
^^ this guy would love if you helped
OH also i NEED someone who is like pretty good at programming and math since trigonometry and calculus are most likely gonna be needed lmao
Forgot to mention: I can do all of the game design and level design. It really is just the programming that I need help with, lol

If you've never released a game before, 4-8 hours of gameplay plus collaborating with another person is not going to happen, and if its the first project you release on this website I don't think it will make portal history. I really really think you should make something small first, flesh it out, and release it. So you can understand the sheer breadth of what you're asking for and all the parts involved. The reason it's such tired and generic advice is because it's useful. You should learn to fry an egg before coordinating a four course meal.

I know its gonna be a serious undertaking. Thats why I'm in college rn studying programming. Just would be nice to make some progress and be able to learn alongside it. Also, I only really said "make newgrounds history" to try to get people on board, lmao
